May 2020 I write in the midst of an unprecedented crisis, the like of which we have not seen since the threat of invasion in World War II. The profound effects of the crisis on every aspect of our lives, our communities, our jobs, our schools and our families create anxiety and uncertainty. It feels like a very dark time for everyone. Yet, if we look around there are signs of light and hope in the darkness - the volunteers who are reaching out to help the vulnerable, the selfless dedication of the NHS and all our essential workers, the resilience and creativity of communities. All these are real consolations to us all right now. The church buildings may be closed to keep everyone safe, but the Church is still open and finding new ways to reach out to everyone. If you search “Heart of Westmorland” on Youtube, there is an online Sunday service every Sunday. Your church leaders do not stop praying for everyone just because we cannot leave our homes. In these dark times, when it has not been possible to recall the death and resurrection of Christ in our church buildings at Easter time, we have the opportunity at home, of discovering how what we are now experiencing may contribute to our own ongoing journey as God’s people. The homes to which we are primarily confined offer us a place in which our faith can be discovered afresh, where we can find ‘the Church within’. So here’s a thought. ‘Non churchy prayer’: For many, prayer is usually something done in church and led by someone at the front using special words and phrases. But that is not happening at the moment and we can pray anywhere and everywhere, talking to God as we would talk to our most intimate friend. So let’s do that - talk to God. Say thank you for any good thing you can think of - for the Tesco man who brought your groceries, for recovery from illness, for our fantastic NHS and essential workers who serve their communities with great courage. Even in these times we can say thank you. We can ask God for things too, most of all for an end to this global pandemic and to strengthen the sick and all who are working so hard to beat the virus. If you have had a child baptised in the last 18 months (and quite a few people in the parishes have!), you may have been given a book for all the family about how to pray the Lord’s Prayer and what prayer means – get it out and read all together! Now is the time! God save and deliver everyone. Rev. Peter Boyles Graveside Burials.

  • Westmoreland in the Late Seventeenth Century by Colin Phillips
    WESTMORLAND ABOUT 1670 BY COLIN PHILLIPS Topography and climate This volume prints four documents relating to the hearth tax in Westmorland1. It is important to set these documents in their geographical context. Westmorland, until 1974 was one of England’s ancient counties when it became part of Cumbria. The boundaries are shown on map 1.2 Celia Fiennes’s view in 1698 of ‘…Rich land in the bottoms, as one may call them considering the vast hills above them on all sides…’ was more positive than that of Daniel Defoe who, in 1724, considered Westmorland ‘A country eminent only for being the wildest, most barren and frightful of any that I have passed over in England, or even Wales it self. ’ It was a county of stark topographical contrasts, fringed by long and deep waters of the Lake District, bisected by mountains with high and wild fells. Communications were difficult: Helvellyn, Harter Fell, Shap Fell and the Langdale Fells prevented easy cross-county movement, although there were in the seventeenth century three routes identified with Kirkstone, Shap, and Grayrigg.3 Yet there were more fertile lowland areas and 1 TNA, Exchequer, lay subsidy rolls, E179/195/73, compiled for the Michaelmas 1670 collection, and including Kendal borough.
